Audition Central: Disney's The Little Mermaid JR.

Script: Sebastian

FLOUNDER
Ariel! Are you okay?

SEBASTIAN
Oh child, what have you done?

(After a moment, ARIEL sits up and stares at her new legs in wonderment. Slowly and shakily she tries to stand, sticking her arms out for balance... then falls on her rear. SCUTTLE flaps in.)

SCUTTLE
Well, look who got beached! Hiya, Ariel! Wait  there s something different about cha. Don t tell me  it s your hairdo, right? You ve been using the dinglehopper!

(ARIEL shakes her head  no. )

Nah? Hmm... I can t quite put my foot on it right now

SEBASTIAN
She s got legs, you idiot!

FLOUNDER
Ariel traded her voice to the Sea Witch to become human!

SCUTTLE
Nah, kid! Not your beautiful pipes!

(ARIEL nods. She opens her mouth, but no sound.)

SEBASTIAN
Ya see? Not a sound! What would her father say? I ll tell ya what her father d say: he d say he s gonna kill himself a crab, that s what he d say!

FLOUNDER
Now she s got three days to make Prince Eric fall in love with her. And to prove it, he s gotta kiss her!

SCUTTLE
The Prince? Well, I ll say!
